= 17/24 * 100
= 1700/24
= 70.83%

After rounding-off to the nearest hundredth, it would be: 71%

In short, Your Final answer would be 71%

Hope this helps!

<u>EXPLANATION</u><u>:</u>

In ∆ ABC , ∠ABC = 40°

∠CAB = x°
& ∠ACD = 50°

∠ACD is an exterior angle formed by extending BC to D

We know that

The exterior angle of a triangle formed by extending one side is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

∠ACD = ∠CAB + ∠ABC

⇛50° = x° + 40°

⇛x° = 50°-40°

and

In ∆ ACD , AC = CD

⇛ ∠CDA = ∠CAD

Since the angles opposite to equal sides are equal.

Let ∠CDA = ∠CAD = A°

We know that

The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°

In ∆ ACD,

∠CDA +∠CAD + ∠ACD = 180°

A°+A°+50° = 180°

⇛2A°+50° = 180°

⇛2A° = 180°-50°

⇛2A° = 130°

⇛A° = 130°/2

⇛A° = 65°

now,

∠CDA = ∠CAD = 65°

∠BAC + ∠CAD+y = 180°

Since angles in the same line

10°+65°+y = 180°

⇛75°+y =180°

⇛y = 180°-75°

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u> Hence, the value of “x” & “y” will be 10° and 105° respectively.

A painting is 2 in tall and 3 in wide. If it is enlarged to a width of 15 in then how tall will it be?

vekshin1

Answer:

10 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Old proportions:

2 x 3

New proportions

h x 15

Assuming the painting has been increased by a constant scale factor.

Where x is the unknown scale factor, and h is the height after it has been enlarged.

$3 * x = 15\\2 * x = h$

Rearrange second equation:

$3 * x = 15\\x =\frac{h}{2}$

Substitute:

$3*\frac{h}{2} =15\\\frac{h}{2}=5\\h=10$

Jamal Buys a lunch special for $9.50And a dessert for $3.50. He wants to leave a tip that is about 15% of the bill. He estimates

sergey [27]

Answer:

His estimate is somewhat low.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total bill is $9.50 +3.50 = $13.00. The estimated tip is 15% of $10, so Jamal needs to add 15% of $3, or $0.45, to his estimate to leave a tip equal to 15% of the bill.

The tip Jamal has calculated is about 11.5% of the bill. (1.50/13.00 ≈ 0.1154)

The tip Jamal wants to leave is $1.95. (0.15·13.00 = 1.95)
